What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

I use "Sync" and "GoodSync" and would like these added to Cloud Drives.

Sync adds a Folder to C:\Users\username\Sync
It seems like this would be easy to add.

GoodSync has an online storage component that is accessed through the app.
It is accessible via gstore://[disk]:[username].goodsync/
I don't know if that one could easily be added.

Sync:
https://www.sync.com/
Installer:
https://sync.com/download/win/sync-installer-5.0.20.exe

GoodSync:
https://www.goodsync.com/
Installer:
https://www.goodsync.com/download/GoodSync-vsub-Setup.exe

Requirements

  • Add support for Sync
  • Add support for GoodSync

Files Version

3.9.2.0

Windows Version

10.0.26100.0

I wouldn't know how to integrate GoodSync, but Sync can be done fairly easily.

Good sync doesn't look like it's a cloud drive, just backup software that uploads them to somewhere else

@Janzstone can you clarify exactly how Sync works? Does it create a folder named "Sync" in C:\Users\username or does it create a folder for each cloud drive in C:\Users\username\Sync?

They have an online storage component as well. It's not a big deal.

It has the files/folder in the folder sync. Works the same as One Drive does.

So it's not possible to have multiple Sync drives?

I'm not sure if it allows multiple accounts to be used at the same time, but it only one folder per sync account.

On my system I have just C:\Users[username]\Sync.
